October 19, 200916 yr Hi All,Id like a headsup on the correct position and names of 737-800 exterior lights. Its my thinking that :1) Anti Coll lights are Red they flash and are positioned on top and underneath the aircraft.2) Beacons/Strobes four flashing white, one each wing , at the rear two.3) Wing only used to inspect wings and illuminate the wing area, yes one each wing.4) Logo lights at the rear tail area used dusk/dawn and in IFR/IMC conditions.5) Landing lights used on app and on dep dusk/dawn ( unsure )?6) Runway left and right lights used to taxi right or left from to runway.7) Taxi used leaving apron left on up to FL180, turned on again when?Any other info on the subject greatfully received.Regards,Bernard Flannery UVA3761 :(
October 19, 200916 yr Please sign your full name in this forum.I think you got the light nomenclature sorted out correctly. Landing lights are generally on below 10,000 for collision avoidance and taxi lights are used for taxi. But, there's differences between operators here. I turn on both wing lights and landing lights below 10,000 as I observe SWA doing this. Dan Downs KCRP
October 19, 200916 yr Use of lights and an explanation here - http://www.aviationearth.com/Theory/aircra...tionlights.htmlHope this is some help - of course it goes all to as necessary in fog as the light gets dispersed too much at times.John Ellison
